leva [86]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:C

Explanation:

let the speed be v for both mass x and mass y

mass(x)=500kg

mass(y)=2000kg

Kinetic energy(mass(x))=(500 x v^2)/2

Kinetic energy(mass(x))=250v^2

Kinetic energy(mass(y))=(2000xv^2)/2

Kinetic energy(mass(y))=1000v^2

Ratio of kinetic energy y to x =1000v^2:250v^2

=1000v^2 / 250v^2

=4/1=4:1

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106 hz and 1hz=
AURORKA [14]
The frequency of the radio station is
f=88.7 fm= 88.7 MHz = 88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz

For radio waves (which are electromagnetic waves), the relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda is
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light. Substituting the frequency of the radio station, we find the wavelength:
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=3.38 m

Maria throws an apple vertically upward from a height of 1.3 m with an initial velocity of +2.8 m/s. Will the apple reach a frie
evablogger [386]

Answer:

No, the apple will reach 4.20041 m below the tree house.

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 2.8 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

g = Acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 m/s² = a (negative as it is going up)

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-2.8^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=0.39959\ m

The height to which the apple above the point of release will reach is 0.39959 m

From the ground the distance will be 1.3+0.39959 = 1.69959 m

Distance from the tree house = 5.9-1.69959 = 4.20041 m

No, the apple will reach 4.20041 m below the tree house.

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m
